The one-year training program features emergency medicine, critical care of both adult and pediatric patients, toxicology, and pre-hospital experiences. Residents will practice in a level II trauma center, level 3 NICU, with additional rotations at the only Women’s & Children’s hospital in the city, as well as an off-site poison control center. The PGY2 Emergency Medicine resident will be an integral part of the health care team providing comprehensive medical management, focusing on bedside care, resuscitation, and real-time clinical drug information consults as a member of trauma, stroke, STEMI, and cardiac arrest teams. Other responsibilities include ECMO rounding, toxicology consults, procedural sedation, pharmacotherapy consults, pharmacokinetic analysis, and intensive monitoring of patients on service. The resident will also have the opportunity to enhance their precepting/teaching skills while serving as the primary preceptor for both rotating students or PGY-1 residents and while working hand-in-hand with the emergency medicine physicians, fellows, and emergency medicine residents from the University of Alabama at Birmingham.
